Rockfax Description
A good alternative, should conditions not be suitable for Astral Stroll. Start as for Astral Stroll.
1) 4b, 20m. Astral Stroll pitch 1.
2) 5a, 20m. Move up the corner leftwards (next to the high variation of pitch 1 of Astral Stroll). Make a tricky move right to enter a right-leaning ramp-line/corner that is followed to a belay on easier ground.
3) 18m. Move left to a corner and follow this to the top. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
1a.4c. Low Variation: From the sea-level ledges traverse rightwards and then move up to belay at the foot of a left-leaning corner.
1b. 4c. High Variation: If sea state prohibits access to the low traverse, climb at a higher level to turn the arete and gain a large ledge. Continue horizontally to the belay.
2. 5a. Climb the corner above the belay for approx 15ft then traverse rightwards across the corner to gain the base of a rightward slanting groove and follow this to easy ground.
